"It's on the tips of our tongues, but who'll be the first one to say it? I've said it too much in the past so let's just have fun and delay it. But come round and show me..."

Because it just doesn't get any sexier than "Come Round and Love Me."

Self Storage: A Novel

First to recommend

Description

Award-winning author Gayle Brandeis' Self Storage (Ballantine Books, January 2007) is a novel about a woman whose habit of buying and reselling storage unit contents sets her on a path of self-discovery inspired by Walt Whitman's Song of Myself. Layered and politically resonant, it's the one to read right now!

"A novel of passion and consequence, identity and accountability. I love the narrator, her children, her wild ride, and this truly American story of getting mad and getting wise."
-- Barbara Kingsolver, author of The Poisonwood Bible

A Separate Reality: A Novel

First to recommend

Description

I've been really excited to have the opportunity to get the word out about New York-based artist Robert Marshall's electric first novel, A Separate Reality (Carroll & Graf, November 2006) -- described by The Washington Post as "remarkably vivid" and "as good an encapsulation of adolescence as you're likely to read."

Marshall's debut has been variously described as "a failure to come of age story," a pitch-perfect literary assessment of '70s pop culture, and "a novel about the risks and appeal of the desire to be perfect; and the influence of an ex-hippie poet who encourages smoking pot, reading poetry and the writing of Carlos Castaneda." All of this and more is true, and this is one new voice on the fiction scene that you won't want to miss.

You know how you don't know about something and therefore it has no impact on your consciousness whatsoever but then let's say you come across a headband with a wooden button and feathers on it and it's like... I can't even catch my breath I want it so bad.
